Abstract: The article examines the main trends of world and Russian market of lubricants in the context of modern environmental requirements. The need for measures in the field of hydrocarbons resources saving under conditions of Russian reality is identified. Economic preconditions for lubricants production industry development in the Russian Federation are presented. In order to spare resources the world manufacturers of lubricants develop the newest methods of waste oil products recovery The processing of waste oils and their regeneration present now for many countries the priority goal. In addition, it allows to save about 600 kg of CO2 for every ton of waste oil. According to recent studies, during the 2014 the world production of lubricants must rise above 3.5 million tons per year. The consumption of 90% of oil (II-III categories) in Russia is covered by import and the consumption of this kind of lubricants is growing. Considering the energy security and the necessity to substitute the import of high quality lubricants the country has to pursue the policy of import substitution , to develop economic mechanisms and possibilities for their implementation.Â
